Ever dreamed of driving trains? Now you can! Train Simulator brings to life the thrill of driving high speed trains on real world routes in incredible detail. Welcome to TS Academy: Your career starts here!

The five-car sets were built by Alstom at their Washwood Heath plant between 2000 and 2001 for First Great Western, who wanted to increase the frequency of their express services between London Paddington and South Wales, and became part of the Coradia 1000 family, alongside the popular Class 175.

Nicknamed ‘Adelante’ by First Group, the Class has had a chequered career, being late into service in the early 2000s and returns to their leasing company, Angel Trains, ahead of schedule in 2009. Subsequently, they were assigned to other train operators and in 2012, five sets were refurbished by First Great Western.

In total, only 14 sets were built and despite their reliability problems, are still in operation today for Grand Central Trains, First Great Western and First Hull Trains. They are capable of reaching 125 mph (201 km/h) thanks to a Cummins QSK19 diesel engine, identical to the engine fitted to the Class 220 ‘Voyager’. The ‘Adelante’ is also unique in being the only diesel-powered high speed train in the World that has a diesel-hydraulic transmission.

The Class 180 ‘Adelante’ for Train Simulator is available in Grand Central Trains’ black livery and includes features usually seen on high speed trains, including signal bell, open/close coupling hatch, DRA, instrument lights, glare panel, headlight control, vehicle overspeed, brake gauge, DSD reset pedal and working TMS system.

The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the Grand Central Class 180 ‘Adelante’ on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the East Coast Main Line: London-Peterborough route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).

Hi.
I've been searching and searching and all I can find is a lot of pointers to other articles which ultimately loop back on themselves.

The Rhine Railway: Mannheim - Karlsruhe available now for Train Simulator

Mar 19

One of Germany’s most strategically important rail lines comes to Train Simulator, bringing the splendours of The Rhine Railway to life and featuring one of Europe’s largest freight marshalling yards.

The Rhine Railway runs from Mannheim to Rastatt, via Karlsruhe, and was opened in 1870 as an alternative route to the Baden Mainline. The line originally ran between Graben-Neudor and Karlsruhe, following a more western path to its current one, and is now called the Hardt Railway, partly used by lines S1 and S11 of the Karlsruhe Stadtbahn.

In 1895, the current route was opened as far as Karlsruhe and extended to Rastatt. Being entirely within the Upper Rhine Plain, the line is almost entirely straight and there are no major engineering structures anywhere along its path, and runs almost parallel with the Rhine Valley Railway, which runs from Mannheim to Hiedelberg, Karlsruhe, Rastatt, Offenburg and Basel.

The line has undergone several changes through the years, being adapted and extended for both World Wars. Most notably, the line was electrified in the 1950s and in subsequent years, several stations were abandoned, including the station of Altrip, - the town now lies on the opposite bank of the Rhine having been cut off entirely by the straightening of the river.

Today long distance trains formed of BR 145 locomotives with Regio passenger coaches, as well as ICE and TGV high speed trains, travel the route in either direction. It is also served by Regional-Express services formed with BR425 S-Bahn electric multiple units.

A prominent landmark on the route is the Mannheim Rangierbahnof, one of Europe’s largest freight marshalling yards, stretching six kilometres (3.7 miles) and covering 200 hectares, and also an important freight exchange for the Southern Rhine Valley.

The 80 kilometre (50 mile) Mannheim to Karlsruhe section of The Rhine Railway for Train Simulator recreates the busy line as it is seen today, and features the criss-crossing commuter, high speed and freight lines that see dense traffic on a daily basis.

A number of passenger and freight locomotives and trains are also included with the route, including the DB BR 406 ICE 3M, DB BR 189, DB BR 425, DB BR 294 and associated freight wagons.

Guide

Route maps

Updated 23 March 2015. Maps for some Train Simulator 2015 routes. I hope you will find them useful when setting up Quick Drive, or when creating a scenario.

I have the Exeter to Bristol route and the Riviera route from Exeter to Paignton. It would also be good to have the Exeter to Barnstaple route and I have recently found out that DP Simulations offer this route for free. I have watched a video of the line ...

Since there is no Guide on Steam about Signals (or i didin't found it :P) and i remember i had quite some problems when i first started playing i decided to just make a Guide myself to help new players. This Guide is splited in 2 diffrent sections and yes

Running steam and diesel engines combined together in TS2015 is not as difficult as it may sound. Done properly, it can permit you to get more enjoyment out of both power types. There are several things to keep in mind when doing it however, and its for

The game itself is AMAZING but the fact that you get very little in the game and everything is based off dlc is really disappointing....Well why dont you just buy all the DLC...well i was going to until i realized that they are over priced and come to a total of $4,803.78....DLC Simulator

Good game for the first few hours, then you either have to pay for more routes or stop playing. I got it on a steam sale when it was $8.00 with a few routes. Even then it was overpriced.

Gameplay: 5/10+Enjoyable+low lag on my slow pc (It did take around five minutes to load though)+Nice realistic trains and tracks-Gets boring very quickly-You have to pay for "DLC" that are required to actually play-It takes away way too many points and does not give you any (This only really makes sense if you have played the game)

Sound: 9/10+realistic sounds+Seem very polished-The sound is the same no matter which camera you are at (Some people don't care about this but it just drives me insane)

Overall score: 3/10This game would get a 9/10 if they made the game cheaper and fixed some of the glitches like the train not leaving the train station even though everything is on and I should be able to move. The standard edition is worth $10-20 not $30. DO NOT BUY UNLESS YOU HAVE TONS OF MONEY TO SPENDTHIS GAME SHOULD BE CALLED "WASTE YOUR MONEY SIMULATOR 2015"
